Strawberry Cheese Pie

I’ve weakness when I see strawberries. I just can’t resist those red beautiful glistening berries when I walk into the supermarket. It’s like calling out my name when I see them. There are only two of us and I can’t seem to get through my head that I am buying too many of it. When come to strawberries I have no will power ;)

Here is one of my favorite simple recipes. It was a real treat for afternoon tea or a slice after dinner.

1. In a food processor add cream cheese, eggs, sugar and lemon juice. Turn on the machine and let it blend for a few second until mixture is smooth. Turn off the machine and add in the slice strawberry for the filling.2. Mix well and pour into the pie shell. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes.3. Cool and refrigerate. Place slice strawberries completely over pie top or around the edges, depending on the amount of strawberries you’re using.4. Heat up the strawberry jam in the microwave until soft and brush tops of berries until thoroughly glazed.5. Serve cold.

Oh Gert,2 days ago I was debate what to bake,I even prepare the crust for cheesecake to bake bluerries cheesecake but changed my mind to pie...Your recipe is really easy and the strawberry color is so vibrate!!..going to make your cheesecake only my pie finish.

I am attempting to do this today .. with a little help from my little girl .. but unfortunately she doesn't like cheesecake :( .. but then more for me hehehe .. but she loves fresh fruit tart tho' .. which unfortunate for her .. mommy doesn't know how to make one :( So dear .. know any simple recipe on how to make fresh fruit tart ? ..hehehe

Envy, you can always replace the cheese filling with vanilla pudding. First you bake the pie shell and let it cool down, then fill it up with vanilla pudding and then top it up with fresh fruits. Hope your little girl like this one :) I will try to make this and feature it here :)
